Oh, god, you suck

Another crank is haranguing me on twitter. This one’s conceit is that he’s writing emails from God. They’re bizarre: they’re anti-clerical and pro-god, and from them we learn that God has lousy grammar and spelling, and despite being anti-religion, is still pushing the same old tiresome patriarchal beliefs that religion does. Take, for instance, GOD eMails.info: eMail III, Subject: Women.

My dear women, I made you with pre-existing matters. I created you to honor, nature, share, and preserve life. I made each one of you with your own unique beauty. Nothing that walks on earth is more admirable than you women. Men of wisdom and science would respect you and protect you. And there is nothing men can do to stop him from falling in love with you women.

You noticed that your bodies will experience a change when you become pregnant, and your vagina would go through a painful trauma at the time of giving birth. The pain caused is something you women would never forget after you had experienced it. Its serves as a reminder not to choose as the father of your child any man insisting on you to fallow any organized religion.

Sincerely;

God. Your God.

It’s condescending bullshit that trivializes women by putting them on a pedestal and acting as if their great virtue is being beautiful for “men of wisdom and science.” And then leaps immediately into pregnancy, because after all, that’s what women are for and find most important in their lives.

What? The Genesis crapola about pain in childbirth twisted to be a reminder that you shouldn’t join a church? I’m going to have to have a talk with my wife; she sure put on a good act with all the sweating and straining and grunting and crying, but she couldn’t have felt any pain during labor, since the father of her children was consistently steering the family away from organized religion.

Apparently, God has once again proven to be a passive-aggressive misogynist with an elementary student sense of language. That is, of course, when God is taking time out of his busy non-passive-aggressive misogyny schedule.

Further down His website; I see He is fully in support of marijuana. That explains it! He’s a pothead. And it isn’t just His support for marijuana that I call Him that. That would also explain his strange grammar and syntax and spelling; He’s just too high to notice and it makes him ramble incoherently. Confession: there were times in the past, I would be “under the influence” of “mary-jane” that my conversation would ramble in similar ways. Another website I will never “visit” again.

For example, if a newbie uses skeptical in their ‘nym, the odds are they aren’t skeptical of anything other than our skepticism. If they claim to be intelligent, they tend to show a lack of intelligence, etc. If someone claims to talk for god, they aren’t.
